Need advices: movie interlaced on some scenes and not on another ones!?!

[LordIntruder]

Hi.


I need some advices about an odd problem.

- Conan the barbarian -1982-(Collector edition) bought in France, Zone 2, PAL.

The fields order change continuously during all the movie. Some sequences are not interlaced while the next one is interlaced!?! In others words you can have a fast movement on the screen and that scene is not interlaced and on another sequence that reproduce same fast movements everything is interlaced. The first time I see that.

Within DVD2AVI "Swap field order" or "none" doesn't change anything.

I encoded the whole movie without any deinterlace filter, I was afraid scenes not interlaced could be worst after such a filter would be applied on them.

Will you recommend to deinterlace it? None interlaced scenes will not be worst? I repeat the movie is not interlaced from the first frame to the last but the first scene that last 10 minutes is not interlaced then the second scene that last x minutes is interlaced and so on. I never heard about that and ask for your experiences to know what solution is the best: apply a deinterlace filter or not.

Last: the scenes that are showed in DVD2AVI interlaced, once encoded in Divx 5.03 we see something a bit blurry. No common interlaced lines, no no, just blurry around objects, around people, etc... in movements.


Thanks to any help on that particular point. :)

Hi-

I haven't worked with the PAL R2 Conan, so maybe someone that has can help out. But what you normally do in such situations is to put on Telecide() (and with no Decimate()), which will fix the changing field order. For more information, please see hakko504's PAL section of This Document (http://www.doom9.org/ivtc-tut.htm). It's down near the bottom, in the THE GOOD: PROGRESSIVE DVDs paragraphs of the PAL portion.
